@WarnerCrocker Try a different framing, even though I realize the legacy media will fail.
The Republicans will be shutting down the government. The Republicans are doing this. They are extremists using the budget to harm the American people and national security. Democrats should not collaborate. President Musk is shutting things down and disabling agencies while Trump is placing entirely corrupt individuals in charge of them. The framing needs to be on what the Republicans are doing, and not of Democrats who will not collaborate with causing damage.
